Pet Prose: Autumn

Author photo.

“‘It’s my job to worry. I’m a Virgo.’

‘But you worry about everything. You see a shingle lying in the street and think our roof is coming off. But it doesn’t even match our shingles! We’re still eating breakfast, and already you’ve worried about climate change, whether the car you bought last year was the smart choice, if we should go anywhere at Christmas–four months from now!’

‘It’s okay to worry about Christmas as soon as they start selling decorations in the stores.'”

A small excerpt from Autumn’s novel Life With a Virgo.

I take photos. I write. My volunteer job is taking photos of rescued dogs and cats transported by the rescue group whose records I manage. Since working and volunteering don’t leave me a lot of time to write, I’m spending 2017 borrowing from what these dogs and cats are writing. They said it’s okay.

  1. Autumn is correct about Christmas, you need to start thinking about it as soon as the decorations come out … and she looks like a concerned soul. I am loving Pet Prose!

    1. Thank you for loving it. It’s my best kept secret from everyone who’s nagged me about writing for the past however many years, lol.

      Of course, I’M not writing these. 😉
